Born in London, Peter Collis studied at Epsom College of Art and
has lived in Ireland since 1969. He has exhibited at the RA, the
RHA, Oireachtas etc. Desmond McAvock in The Irish Times, 1985 wrote:
"Although one can always recognise the scene, it is the treatment
that makes a Peter Collis landscape so instantly recognisable and
individual. Like Cezanne he is really more interested in the structure
of his scenes than in their transitory appearance, so that it is
difficult to discover their season or time. He can bind his observation
into a cohesive tightly controlled but always sensitive design." |
